Biography
As an academic advisor, I embrace the Appreciative Advising philosophy, which centers on identifying and nurturing the strengths, goals, and dreams of each student. I believe in building genuine, trust-based relationships rooted in honesty and transparency. I provide students with clear, candid guidance while honoring their individual experiences and aspirations.
Students deserve reliable, precise information, and I take pride in providing answers they can trust, even if it means doing the extra work to find them. I’ve been a part of the Pratt community since 2010 earning my MFA in Painting/Drawing in 2012. Since then, I’ve devoted my energy towards helping undergraduate students navigate the complexities of their academic journey with confidence.
